Question 138

Multiple Choice

SCENARIO 18-6
A weight-loss clinic wants to use regression analysis to build a model for weight-loss of a client (measured in pounds) .Two variables thought to affect weight-loss are client's length of time on the weight loss program and time of session.These variables are described below:

A) H0 : β\beta 1 = β\beta 2 = β\beta 3 = β\beta 4 = β\beta 5 = 0
B) H0 : β\beta 2 = β\beta 3 = β\beta 4 = β\beta 5 = 0
C) H0 : β\beta 4 = β\beta 5 =0
D) H0 : β\beta 2 = β\beta 3 = 0
